Manchester United have approached Southampton director of football Jason Wilcox for the position of technical director. However, Southampton disputes the existence of a buyout clause in Wilcox contract and insists on a year’s notice period. United believes they have followed proper procedures but Southampton is annoyed by the timing.
Wilcox departure would be crucial for Southampton, especially as they vie for promotion. United sees Wilcox as a key figure in their recruitment team. Additionally, discussions are ongoing for Dan Ashworth compensation with Newcastle while United also seeks to oversee player pathways within the INEOS group.
Southampton manager Russell Martin, intends to discuss the matter with Wilcox after a recent defeat. Wilcox track record at Manchester City and Southampton highlights his value in player development and recruitment.
